This group has gone to hell. All I see here day after day is ramblings and
mostly nonsense things. Do you think we can turn this around and get some
decent posting here. What I mean by decent posting is talking about your
Schizophrenia and related problems. After all this is what this place is
for.

Really get serious and maybe people will start posting again. I'm sick of
all the nonsense. For the people who post about 5 to 10 messages a day.
Can't you post one meaningful one or put all of your nonsense on one post.

I'm not saying this to be mean and I know it probably comes off this way,
but I'm afraid we are losing valuable people reading and posting because
this place has changed so much.

I thought about unsubscribing because all the unrelated stuff I was reading,
but thought I would stick it out awhile and see what happens. I have been
reading here a couple of weeks or so. I prefer to stay "on-topic" for the
most part. Did this used to be a pretty informative, supportive and mature
group? That's definitely what I am looking for. I'm trying to figure
things out.

You may call them nonsense ramblings girl - but indeed they may be quite
significant and important to the person or persons who is/are posting them.

Indeed, you really know what´s good for us, since you post nada but insults.

Yes - and this could have a knock on effect. With paranoia which is
symptomatic of schizophrenia - no doubt the entire group will think they are
the ones that are posting nonsense and no one will post anything and the
group will DIE!
Anyone that comes here with insults I do take personally - I am sure girl
does consider what I write to be rambling and nonsense.
I do not think people with schizophrenia can really help it but I am unsure
what to do.
Do you know how to post about schizophrenia and related problems? I mean is
not this what everyone IS doing?

Girl, I agree 100%. Is anyone up for a moderated group?

My Outlook Express newsreader has a block feature, and about every 6 months
I use it with someone.

Regarding: "This group has gone to hell."
We are in hell. Posts that reflect this should be allowed here. This may
be the only place where certain folks can express themselves. It is an
outlet.

For me the group has a few big benefits. You can't beat the personal
opinions on the various medications. You can find out things here no doctor
would ever tell you. Secondly, when something new pops up, someone on here
will post about it.

Every year or two there is some new wonder drug being marketed and everybody
gets excited about it. Out of our posters, probably three will try the
stuff. By 6 months later, they will tell us why the new drug sucks. This
happens over and over.

I have different identities on each newsgroup. This is the only place where
I talked about my dog dying. There is some real support here. Most
newsgroups are just a place to argue about everything.

Well I guess it's not that there is not any good posting here it's just that
when I come here daily it's mostly one or two people posting like 5 or 6
posts and though they seem kind of intelligently insane I don't find that it
tells me how these people are doing or how they are helping others.

I'm one of the original posters on this group and I remember a time this
group flourished with posts and everyone seemed to be helping one another.
All I'm saying is this group has really gone to crap. I know a lot of you
were not around when it was going good, but I would like to make a request
that we all start posting again and see where it takes us. I've been here
for about 15 years now and this group really was a place of support some
time ago.

Sorry if I hurt anyone's feelings. I just hate to see this group the way
that it is currently.

I just heard a monkey from Indonesia say last night that "the
American people have too much". I you don't like it leave it!
The same here: you have Yahoo groups for schizophrenia, Google
groups for schizophrenia, countless independent groups and blogs for
schizophrenia, many strictly moderated by bitches. And again I say, "If
you don't like it leave it!"

when I first read this group I thought it was pretty far-out, about 7 years
back

what i post is always of some relavance to something

i think it is fairly obvious that people are suffering and that is what they
are trying to describe

it's just that our problems are a bit far-out

i try to write in simple language and keep the posts short. i hope that this
way i put fewer people off
